Athletistic/Tennis. Former finalist of the 1995 Davis Cup Andrei Chesnokov expressed the opinion that Russian tennis player Daniil Medvedev in the near future risks losing his place in the top three of the ATP rankings due to limited opportunities to win tournaments. points.

“According to my estimates, Medvedev will soon be ousted from the top three by Sinner. Last year, Medvedev had an impressive streak of five consecutive finals, winning four of them, but he now has few opportunities to earn ranking points. In principle, Sinner does not even need to play, he can simply wait for Medvedev’s mistakes. And it will be fully deserved. Sinner plays at the level of Djokovic, he demonstrates fantastic tennis, which is not inferior to anyone, and has everything necessary to not only take third place in the world ranking, but also possibly become first, “quotes Chesnokov, according to the TASS agency.

Currently, Medvedev is in third place in the updated ATP rankings, while the gap with fourth Jannik Sinner is 695 points. However, due to the refusal to defend his title at the tournament in Rotterdam, Medvedev will lose 500 points at the end of the week. Last year, it was during this tournament that he beat Sinner in the deciding match.
